Why recompile vim when you could just do set t_ti= t_te= in your ~/.vimrc? Sure, it's an option, but it's hardly a necessity. And, still - that doesn't help with removing the ~ lines, it just stops vim from changing to and from the altscreen. ~Matt --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
